The study of law has long been shaped by tradition — working through case law volumes, pouring over legal journals, and manually tracing the evolution of legal principles. But as the legal profession transforms with the rise of artificial intelligence, automation, and data-driven tools, legal education must evolve alongside it.

For today’s law students, excelling requires more than mastering case or statutory law. It also demands an understanding of how technology is reshaping both litigation and transactional practice. While litigation involves courtroom disputes, drafting pleadings, researching precedents, and building legal arguments, transactional work focuses on drafting contracts, structuring deals, reviewing regulatory requirements, and managing corporate transactions.

Most students gain early exposure to litigation workflows through moot courts and research projects, but they typically encounter transactional work only during internships or once they enter firms. At CaseMine, we aim to bridge this gap by equipping students — from the earliest stages of their legal education — with tools that help them engage confidently with both sides of the legal profession.

CaseMine in Academia: Forging Future-Ready Lawyers

At the heart of our platform is a suite of integrated AI tools. Leading this suite is AMICUS, India’s first GPT-powered legal AI assistant, introduced in 2023. AMICUS transforms how students interact with legal information, enabling conversational research, document summarization, argument generation, drafting assistance, and contract review — making it equally valuable for litigation tasks (like legal memoranda or court submissions) and transactional tasks (like agreement drafting or risk assessments).

Complementing AMICUS is CaseIQ, our AI-powered contextual search engine. Unlike keyword-based tools, CaseIQ allows students to upload moot court drafts, research papers, or even transactional templates and retrieve highly relevant precedents, cases, and commentary through deep contextual analysis. This helps students approach both dispute-driven legal questions and deal-making projects with precision and insight.

Together, AMICUS, CaseIQ, and our broader research suite offer students a comprehensive platform to engage with the full spectrum of legal work — not just the courtroom, but the boardroom as well.

Here’s how CaseMine supports students at key stages of their academic and professional journey:

Moot Courts and Memorial Drafting

Moot courts are often students’ first exposure to litigation-style work — drafting memorials, researching case law, and constructing oral arguments. With CaseIQ, students can upload moot propositions and retrieve contextually relevant precedents, moving beyond simple keyword matches to find the most persuasive cases. AMICUS deepens this process by helping them understand complex principles, test alternative arguments, and improve the clarity and structure of their submissions. Together, these tools sharpen litigation research, advocacy, and drafting abilities, giving students a meaningful competitive edge.

Academic Research and Legal Writing

For research papers, seminar projects, or coursework, students must analyze legal questions rigorously and support their positions with sound authority. AMICUS enables conversational exploration of legal topics, clarifies dense doctrines, and assists in outlining clear, coherent arguments. Whether exploring litigation-focused questions like constitutional rights or transactional issues like shareholder agreements, CaseIQ surfaces the most relevant, authoritative judgments and materials, giving students a strong foundation for academic writing and analysis.

Assignments and Class Preparation

Daily academic preparation is transformed with CaseMine’s tools. Students can upload lecture notes, reading materials, or problem statements into CaseIQ to discover directly relevant case law or commentary. AMICUS acts as an on-demand tutor, explaining legal terms, doctrines, and procedural rules in simple, accessible language. Importantly, these tools introduce students not only to litigation perspectives but also to transactional contexts — such as contract interpretation, compliance issues, and deal structures — helping them build a more well-rounded understanding of legal practice even before internships.

Internships and Practical Exposure

When students step into internships — whether at law firms, chambers, corporate legal departments, or legal clinics — practical exposure becomes critical. While litigation internships might involve assisting with drafting briefs, preparing research memos, or attending court proceedings, transactional internships focus on reviewing contracts, conducting due diligence, drafting NDAs, or supporting regulatory filings. With AMICUS, students can confidently tackle both types of work: applying their academic knowledge to real-world litigation problems while also navigating the nuances of commercial and transactional assignments. This dual exposure prepares them to make meaningful contributions across diverse practice areas.

Unlocking Deeper Understanding

At CaseMine, we believe our tools should not just fetch content from databases but should serve as true learning aids — helping students interpret, visualize, and engage with the law in a more meaningful and interactive way. Studies show we often understand concepts better when we can see their relationships with other concepts, track their development,  map their impact, rather than just simply reading and memorising. That’s why CaseMine’s advanced features are designed to help students move beyond surface-level research and explore how legal ideas are understood, argued, and applied across cases.

Here’s how these features help students deepen their understanding:

Parallel Search

Parallel Search helps students see how the same legal proposition has been interpreted across different judgments, even when phrasing varies. Rather than limiting research to exact keywords, this tool uses advanced AI to uncover conceptual connections — giving students a clearer view of how courts have approached similar issues, sometimes reaching similar conclusions, sometimes diverging. It encourages them to explore multiple angles and strengthens their ability to compare and contrast legal reasoning.

Visual Search Linking

Seeing connections often unlocks understanding faster than reading them line by line. Visual Search Linking provides a snapshot view of the most relevant and landmark cases related to a legal issue, helping students quickly understand which judgments have shaped the conversation and how they connect to one another.

Importance Matrix

Legal texts are dense, but not every paragraph carries equal weight. Importance Matrix guides students to the most critical parts of a judgment — highlighting the paragraphs that have been most cited or discussed in later cases. It doesn’t just tell students what matters in one decision; it shows how that reasoning echoes forward through the legal system, shaping subsequent arguments and rulings. This makes it easier to focus on the sections that truly influence the outcome, whether in litigation or transactional contexts.

Academic Engagements with Law Schools

CaseMine works closely with nearly all of India’s leading National Law Universities (NLUs) as well as several top private law schools, embedding cutting-edge legal technology into academic life. We’ve partnered as knowledge and research collaborators in moot court competitions, legal writing contests, and research projects — giving students practical opportunities to apply our tools in both academic and competitive settings. These collaborations extend beyond the classroom, helping students engage early with both litigation and transactional tasks.

Here’s some recent feedback from our academic partners, reflecting the impact of these engagements:

As we continue working alongside institutions nationwide, these collaborations help advance our shared goal: equipping law students with the skills, tools, and confidence to thrive in both litigation and transactional practice.

At CaseMine, our vision is to transform how the next generation of legal minds learn, think, and practice. We believe legal education is not just about mastering laws and procedures — it’s about shaping adaptable, critical thinkers who can confidently navigate both the courtroom and the boardroom, with technology as an integral part of that journey. By partnering with academic institutions, empowering students, and driving innovation, we are helping create a legal community that is truly future-ready: equipped to lead, evolve, and excel across both litigation and transactional landscapes.
